When I came home from work today my home was so sparkling and bright, that I now have to wear shades inside.
The cleaning team has done an excellent job and I am now walking happily around my apartment and admiring and enjoying their fine work. I am ready for the gossiping craftsmen´s arrival tomorrow.
To avoid slipping back into the same pattern again I am also going to have a cleaning crew coming here every third week. The crews arrival - I know from previous experience - will force me to declutter the days before they come and conditions should be safely maintained at an acceptable level of quality.

Wow Bock!
ReplyDeleteYou did it!
It can be very difficult, sometimes, to stop wishing and just do it. I admire how you jumped into this , took charge, put in the work, and took measures to make sure you don't fall back. OMG, it's so healthy.
I'm watching a close friend deal with grief and I only hope that they find this place that you've come to. It's about loving yourself in the way that those we've lost would want you to be loved. It is a time for celebration, because have found something that was never really gone.
Thanks for the support Anonymous!
DeleteI think the main thing to remember in such situations is that everyone runs by their on timeline. The first year is actually a breeze compared to the second, not many understand this.
All one can do as a bystander is to be there and offer help from time-to-time. Don´t get offended if they decline it at first and jump at it if the offer is sort of accepted without any delays so they can regret accepting. (Well that´s how it worked for me...)
yay:)must have been great to come home to a clean and fresh apartment:)
ReplyDeletewish i could have a cleaning crew come here once a month or something, they do it better than i do. however i would probably run after them all the time and annoy them to death hihi.
It was actually bloody marvelous ;)
DeleteBut after the ordeal of the last two weeks I have been so totally exhausted that all I have managed is to do my thing at work and then come home and sleep until it was time to get up for work again. I am past the worst now and just feeling happy again ;)
Congrats my friend :) It warms my heart to see you so happy :)
ReplyDeleteThanks dearest Diana ;)
DeleteOMG I must hve been asleep when you rang the doorbell, so sorry Mr. Wonderful.
ReplyDeletePlease come again and stay for a whole weekend! ;)
Mr Beautiful, I am camped outside on your doorstep...let me in....
ReplyDeleteUhoh you called my bluff, well a man´s got to do what a man´s got to do... *runs to open the door to let Ziggy come in*
ReplyDeleteZiggy is exhausted and wet from the rain and begs Bock to use his shower before making them both a fantastic meal....
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmm... *thinks about the tempting offer but... tosses the poor man an old blanket and a thermos of tea before slamming the door shut*
ReplyDeleteUmmm the next International Kiss-A-Swede Day will be on June 6, 2013... Just saying! ;)
ReplyDeleteI might refuse to attend next year out of protest!
ReplyDeleteAny refusal or resistance will not be accepted!
